Oscar Santillan (Ecuador, 1980) lives and works between The Netherlands and Ecuador.

Since his first solo exhibit in which only animals were allowed in, Santillan has developed a practice that suggests the covenant between the possible and the impossible, the seen and the unseen. In this process distant points are brought into dialogue: the sweat of a person to the beat of drums, the breeze of jaguars to marble, bird sounds to martial arts.
